When I Lost Her
It's the perfect day with the perfect girl. It's Bright and beautiful outside and it's the day of my Junior prom, I couldn't be happier. We're outside my house taking pictures. My mom is standing there with a big smile and she holds up the camera to take a picture of me holding my girl in my arms. She puts the camera to her side and say, "You two look so cute together." She chuckles for a second, "The perfect couple."
Finally Picture time is over and we get into the car. Pulling out of the driveway my girl and I wave to our families, and blow kisses as though we where going away on a cruise. Driving down the street I have One hand one the wheel and the other holding hers. Once again I feel as though I am the happiest man alive. Nothing could go wrong.
Driving down the Street toward our school all the sudden I get a sick feeling in my stomach. Something is going to happen. I don't know what it is but I can feel it. Driving extra careful I pull up to the intersection. I think to myself, 'All I have to do is make this left turn and we'll be at the school and nothing can happen. The light changes green. I wait for a safe opening to turn. Turn left into the school, suddenly everything goes black, and I hear nothing.
Finally I can hear something. I hear the sounds of people talking with a tone of concern in their voices. Then I hear a creak or twisting medal. My head is throbbing now. Why can't I see? Why can't I hear my love? What the hell has happened?
I see something. It's blurry but I can finally see a little. There is flashing red and blue lights. My sight is getting clearer and I can see that I'm upside down, but still in the car. Still I want to know what happened. Rushing through my mind I begin to panic. Where is my girl!? What happened to her!? I try to look over to where she was sitting and I feel horrible pain in my neck, but I am able to look over. I see her hair, but she's not moving. I scream her name hoping that maybe she will respond, but still no movement. At the moment all I can think about is her. I undo my seatbelt and crawl out of the twisted car. I'm in so much pain, but some how I manage to run over to her side of the car. I move her hair out of her face and I beggin to cry because for a moment she seems lifeless. Then her mouth moves and her eye twitches. She's alive! I do everything I can to pull her from the car. Now leaning against the car I lay her head down in my lap still crying, "Baby everything is going to be ok. Just stay with me." She grabs my hand and opens her eyes, and says, "Please don't let go…" I see a tear go down her cheek. "I'm scared." She cries with a quiver of her lip, "I don't want to go…" I look her in the eye and whip away her tear, "Your not going any were my love just stay with me." The grip of her hand gets weaker. She looks me in the and says, "I love you…" and slowly her eyes close and her hand lets go. I don't know what to do. I just sit there holding her crying. Why did this have to happen to her?
The ambulance comes and tried to get me to let go of her, but I just can't let her go. I just burry my face in her neck sobbing, and cry, "WHY!" Then finally the paramedics pull us apart and bring us to the hospital. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
